ARLA/CLUSTER: Usar a tecnologia LTE nas bandas de amador

[João Costa > CT1FBF]

Group hope to use LTE in ham radio bands

Austria's national society ÖVSV reports on possible amateur radio use
of the mobile communications standard LTE

A Google translation of the ÖVSV post of February 13, 2019 reads:

At the beginning of February, a number of innovative radio amateurs
were able to bring a small base station for LTE experiments into the
umbrella organization for the first time. It was a LXN-500 of the
company. Motorola, which represents in a handy size a complete LTE BTS
including application computer. Since LTE does not bring any so-called
"native services", ie does not know a voice service like GSM, but
simply realizes a transparent IP connection via radio, it is
especially important to use the built-in calculator as well. To
install data services.

Our youth could try out MCPTT applications right away and make "push
to talk" QSOs with our smartphones. Such small local LTE systems are
particularly important in crisis situations to give operational
organizations communication with smartphones, laptops and tablets
again. The BTS has two Ethernet ports for fast Internet and for
networking with other LTE-BTS and two antenna sockets for diversity
reception. The speed is over 100Mb / sec. and it also supports the
standardized LTE band 28A.

Inspired by this, Kurt, OE1KBC spontaneously founded a group to
realize LTE in amateur radio bands as well. The goal is to use SDR and
OpenLTE software to develop fast data transfer from 70cm upwards.
